My thread got locked, that's not a big issue, many of my threads get locked. Though, the reason was a little silly. As for there is many multiple threads containing the same thing. Now, I can see how they wanna keep the discussion in one thread. That's cool as well. Though, really, they are two different types of thread. One was asking for marriage, and mine was asking for same sex marriage(was created beforehand as well). The only reason I can think of, it's a touchy issue. I was just want a better reason than, there is multiple threads of this already.
"Hey folks,
This was a good thread with a lot of good ideas expressed, and it has continued in the form of a new thread located here. As we do not need multiple active threads on the same topic, I'm closing this one out, but hope you'll feel free to post in the new one to take place in the discussion. "
As I've stated, there is multiple threads of the same topic(just look at the front page), so why lock this one? http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...Holy-Matrimony
Locked thread, why?

because it's been started 04-03-2012, and got necro'd, when we have a fresh topic. Is a good reason enough for you ?

Hello there!
The moderation team has the sole discretion on which threads we lock, delete or remove from view. I know that sometimes it feels as though we are "side stepping" touchy subjects, but that is not our plan. The idea of Gay Marriage has been a topic that has been thoroughly debated and resurrecting an older thread to discuss the topic is not always the best way to get your views heard. As many people are aware, I like to let people know about our Feedback Email Support. This Email IS read on a daily basis and the ideas are collected and passed to the development team. Now before it is said that I am pushing you to a private area to discuss this matter, that is not the intention but it is a better way to get ideas expressed and heard.
I am going to close this thread and we ask that you refrain from making new ones to question the actions; while we understand your concern, we do not need to justify our actions -- this is just a courtesypost on my part. In addition to being able to offer feedback about the game through our Email Support, you can also voice any concerns over forum action through the Email Support -- again, the emails are reviewed and you can be assured that a full review is performed by the Supervisor Staff.
Thank you,
-Senior Game Master Jhanaka
